I did find the reference to it in one of your emails from 2 years ago..Minor comments:
- why the purl.org/occi namespace? OGF has an established namespace for XML schemata, see http://schemas.ogf.org/, and GFD.84 on http://www.ogf.org/docs/?cp
Ah, I think I see now where this is coming from! :-) That comment was for the ATOM rendering, which explicitly used XML -- thus the xml schema (see http://forge.ogf.org/sf/wiki/do/viewPage/projects.occi-wg/wiki/APIDesign for details on the ATOM rendering approach). That rendering is obsolete by now I think -- a to-be-defined new ATOM rendering of OCCI, or other XML based renderings, may well introduce XML schemas again, but AFAIU that is different from the way the schema URLs are used in OCCI right now. Cheers, Andre.

Maybe I wasn't clear with the question. I thought we generated a scheme and published it on http://schemas.ogf.org . It been almost a year ago, so I may be wrong... or dropped another brain cell along the way :)
From what I understand from the OCCI specs, the schema locations are indeed supposed to provide a unique and well defined namespace for OCCI, and OCCI extensions. But I don't see any place in the specs where that URL is actually evaluated, and returns a schema of any kind.
Having said that, I think it might be a good idea to use that schema scheme (ha!) to implement some form of namespace verification. For example, I placed an empty document at http://schemas.ogf.org/occi/infrastructure, so that all GET operations on that document return an HTTP 200 (OK). That provides a very simple way to confirm the validity of OCCI identifiers, and also provides a straight-forward way to register OCCI extensions (or rather, their namespaces). One could also link the normative documents for the extension at http://schemas.ogf.org/occi/infrastructure#specification; one could verify the #target elements; etc. However, that is as of yet unspecified AFAICS, and is likely a rather naive proposal, given my somewhat limited knowledge of HTTP itself.
Best, Andre.
cheers, gary

(Same question in the core document , with regards to the http://schemas.ogf.org/occi/ base URL reserved for OCCI and the http://schemas.ogf.org/occi/core#entity Kind instances.)
Sorry for the ignorant question.

More specifically - in Table 1 we define the following Kind instances. Are these tken to be a namespace, so that no definite schema has to be associated with them, or is there intended to be a document returned at the following URIs (i.e., are they actual schemata URLs)?
Table 1. The Kind instances defined for the infrastructure sub-types of Resource, Link and related Mixins. The base URL http://schemas.ogf.org/occi has been replaced with<schema> in this table for a better readability experience.

What would you expect to see there?

Hi Alan,
Where can Joel get the definitive current schema or schemata belonging to OCCI ?
That's my question.. :)

Usually these are created when the document s published. We ran into this on another recent document now in public comment also, and decided to put it in on a tentative basis in that case to facilitate testing. We can do that this time also, since things are so close to publication.
Where can Joel get the definitive current schema or schemata belonging to OCCI, and how likely is it / are they to change before final publication?

There is no scheme @ http://schemas.ogf.org/occi/
